I don't consider Lively a great player. What has he shown when he can't stay healthy?

I agree. I don't view Lively as a great player. He's a difference maker WHEN he plays, but he's not a great player. Personally, I wouldn't pass up a great trade offer for him, but I also wouldn't ship him just to unload him. I don't think he can stay healthy and as we've seen with AD, your best players need to play for the team to succeed. I think Lively has a lot of potential and he's already a starting caliber center, but great player starts at All Star at a minimum for me and really more like all NBA.
